Advantages: good overview of serial killers Disadvantages: lacking in detail
WomenwhoKill - written by CarolAnneDavis (also author of Children whoKill) profiles 13 female serial killers from Aileen Wuornos (who was later profiled in the film Monster) through to Rose West in what is an interesting yet disturbing read.
